Oregon Contemporary Theatre is proud to welcome a special guest performance on September 7th:
"See Jane Run, an Indo Story", is a solo memoir play written and performed by Jane Vogel Mantiri, and directed by Andrés Alcalá.
It is a universal story that confronts grief, inspires hope, and is steeped in love.
The play is an exhale after decades of silence. Indo refugee immigrants fleeing Indonesia after World War 2 suppressed their Indo identity because it was a source of danger and shame. They wanted their children to be spared the pain and assimilate to a new culture.
Now Indos around the world are calling out to each other to tell their stories, and reclaim their identity before the culture vanishes.
The rich legacy of Indo culture lives on in storytelling.
This play is Jane’s Indo’s story about love, loss, generational trauma, and being happy.
Written and performed by Jane Vogel Mantiri
Directed by Andrés Alcalá
Sound and projection design: André Alcalá

The run time of the play is approximately 75 minutes and will include a short talk-back.
